Default Eurostar and Stratford International

The BBC report the fact that:

"A £210m station which was due to help bring in people from abroad to the
London 2012 Olympic Games may never have an international service..."

Correct me if I've got this wrong, but isn't the bit about 'bringing
people to the games' bolloc#s anyway?

Wasn't it announced yonks ago that even if Eurostar HAD been stopping at
Stratford International, calls would cease during the games, because all
four platforms would be used by the 'Olympic Javelin' service, with the
two dedicated international platforms temporarily modified to UK height
platforms?


Sorry, should have added link...
